Minnesota man wins top poker prize by mistake

Christian Pham accidentally entered the wrong event at the World Series of Poker.



It's no secret that Asians kick all kinds of ass in the world of professional poker. But are we so damn good that we can even win in games that we've never played before? That's what happened to one guy who showed up at the World Series of Poker, accidentally signed up for a game he had never played before, but somehow walked away with the tournament's coveted gold bracelet.

Minnesota man's mistake leads to winning poker's top prize

Christian Pham, a professional poker player, arrived in Las Vegas to play no-limit Texas Hold 'em, but instead inadvertently signed up for No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw -- an entirely different game, and one he had never played before. Dude apparently had no idea until he was dealt five cards instead of the usual two.
